I am, by now, left with only the itch mites.
I have good days, and I have bad days. In the past two-three days I discovered what is the crucial difference between good days and bad days… of course outside of the mite population being cruel to me.
I discovered, that itch mites like certain foods.
So what do they like that I eat?

The mites project is whipping my ass... I thought I would report to you on how the mites project is going. If tonight is an indication of how I am doing: I haven't gained any ground... I am itching, uninvited … Continue reading →

Spider mites are tiny, and have an unusual ((in developed countries, that is. Underdeveloped countries have a lot of examples to similar way of developing)) way to go through the four stages of an insect life cycle:
The adult spider mite lays eggs inside the nose of a warm blooded mammal, and then the eggs get into the digestive tract, and go through two more phases, two more stages of the cycle. They come out hungry nymphs that are ready to molt into fully developed spider mites, just need a little help from the host: skin juices.
If this makes your stomach turn: yeah, it turns my stomach too. And makes me feel violated, abused, and all the horrid feelings we so try to avoid, and here it is.

People think that a mite infestation, especially the spider mite infestation is more a nuisance than anything. After all what harm can these critters cause... no bacteria, no virus... no big deal. But the truth is much more complicated, and … Continue reading →

This article is about the vaginal itch mites… I haven’t found anything written about. It causes burn-like wounds, itch like hell, and cause dry vagina symptoms, making sex impossible.
Itch mites are so small I had to train my eyes for months to be able to tell them. But they are boxy and feel under your rolling fingertips like a grain of sand or a grain of some carbohydrate… yellow-brown… I could fit 30 on the head of a pin, if they didn’t climb away.
Now, I have NEVER seen them move, but move they do, and you can feel it if you train yourself to feel it.
They like to hide… because their legs don’t seem to have claws on them, so you can easily brush them off… except they will climb back again.
Their favorite places: TIGHT places. Between ass cheeks, under panties, especially under the elastic… on the underside of you as you lie in bed, including your head, hair.

One way you know if what you are doing works or not is from the reaction of the mites.
The approach we have taken works, and the spider mites regrouped, watched my habits, observed me for a few days/night and then did what they had to do to survive as a family.
They decided that there are two periods when I am too unaware for them to safely deposit their eggs… starting about two hours after I turn the light off, and while I am working on my computer.
So far so good, but what else did they do?
They went into emergency mode, and had the one male fertilize the eggs of 10 females… ((Females have infertile eggs in them waiting for a male to fertilize the eggs… When that happens, the female is ready to lay the eggs right away. No waiting time))

When you go to sleep, you suddenly become aware that you have a body… The feelings are not blocked by the constant mental activity, by being busy… and you start to feel the mites.
You itch. You feel the crawling… depending on the type of mites you have, on your face, on your ear lobes, in your ear… your eyes.
Or underneath your body… where it touches the sheet.
Or where the blanket touches your body…
Or in your anal area
your vaginal area…
